FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a display apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment. - As shown in
FIG. 1 , thedisplay apparatus 100 includes agraphic processor 10, avideo processor 20, an image composingmodule 30, adisplay 40, aperipheral device interface 50, and acontroller 60 controlling these components. Thedisplay apparatus 100 may be, for example, but not limited to, a computer, mobile equipment, and a digital television, which are capable of receiving and displaying a video signal including a broadcast signal, and an audio-video (AV) apparatus connected to a wire-based or wireless network. A broadcast signal may include digital and analog broadcast signals, a satellite broadcast signal, and a cable broadcast signal. Thedisplay apparatus 100 may include a broadcast reception unit (not shown) receiving a broadcast signal or a network interface (not shown) capable of receiving a video signal through a network. - The
graphic processor 10 processes a graphic signal superimposed on a video signal, for example, but not limited to, an on-screen display (OSD), a sub-picture, and a subtitle. A graphic signal may include a plurality of layers. Thegraphic processor 10 may be configured as an OSD generation unit generating a graphic user interface, such as an OSD, or as a central processing unit (CPU) (not shown) responsible for control of thedisplay apparatus 100. When thegraphic processor 10 is configured as a CPU, thegraphic processor 10 may merge with thecontroller 60. As will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art, the functions of thegraphics processor 10 andcontroller 60, as well as other control and processing functions of thedisplay apparatus 100 may be implemented by the CPU. A configuration in which thegraphic processor 10 and thecontroller 60 are provided as independent components shown inFIG. 1 is provided only for convenience of illustration and does not necessarily mean that the two components are physically separate. - The
video processor 20 processes a video signal that is a main image, such as a broadcast signal. Thevideo processor 20 may include, for example, but not limited to, a demultiplexer, an MPEG decoder, an image quality adjustment unit, and an image quality enhancement unit. Also, thedisplay apparatus 100 may further include a sound processor (not shown) for sound processing. - The image composing
module 30 incorporates hardware and software for combining a video signal and a graphic signal and outputting a composite signal to thedisplay 40. The image composingmodule 30 also incorporates hardware and software for performing alpha blending, a process of combining images based on transparency information indicating transparency of overlapping images. The transparency information is generally referred to as an alpha value, which is 8-bit data that distinguishes transparency levels from 0 to 255. The image composingmodule 30 includes known algorithms for combining a video signal and a graphic signal, without the algorithms being particularly limited. The image composingmodule 30 combines a broadcast signal as a lower layer with a graphic signal, for example, but not limited to, channel information indicating a channel number and a program title, a subtitle and a teletext, as a higher layer. The image composingmodule 30 may be configured as a scaler or a processing module that adjusts quality of an image and outputs the image finally to thedisplay 40. - The
display 40 displays a main image, such as a broadcast signal, and a graphic image combined with the main image. Thedisplay 40 may include a panel, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel including liquid crystals, an organic light emitting diode (OLED) panel including OLEDs, a plasma display panel (PDP), a flexible display and a three-dimensional (3D) display, and a panel driver driving the panel. - The
peripheral device interface 50 corresponds to an interface connected to an externalperipheral device 200. As shown inFIG. 1 , theperipheral device interface 50 includes aUSB port 51 and anHDMI port 53. Theperipheral device interface 50 may be connected to an externalperipheral device 200 in order to support a feature which is not supported by the existingdisplay apparatus 100. A USB signal including a control signal may be transmitted and received through theUSB port 51, and a digital signal may be received from the externalperipheral device 200 through theHDMI port 53. Signals transmitted and received through theUSB port 51 and theHDMI port 53 comply with defined standards, which are not described in detail herein. - The external
peripheral device 200 provides a variety of image signals to thedisplay apparatus 100 so as to provide a feature which is not executed by thedisplay apparatus 100. For example, the externalperipheral device 200 may provide a game image and a film image to the display apparatus so that a game image or video such as a movie, other than a broadcast signal, is displayed on thedisplay apparatus 100. Further, the externalperipheral device 200 may provide a data service associated with a broadcast signal currently being received and displayed. For example, when thedisplay apparatus 100 is displaying a broadcast signal, the externalperipheral device 200 may provide a search feature associated with the broadcast signal being displayed, an advertisement associated with a broadcast or information about the broadcast, a real-time data signal such as a survey, or information about stocks. Such information, transmitted to the externalperipheral device 200 through a web network such as the Internet, is data which is not input to theconventional display apparatus 100. In short, the externalperipheral device 200 may provide various features provided by a smart television to thedisplay apparatus 100 beyond an image source, such as a current DVD. - An image signal provided by the external
peripheral device 200 to thedisplay apparatus 100 through theHDMI port 53 may include a graphic signal which is associated with a video signal that is a main image displayed on the entire display, such as a broadcast signal, i.e., contents of a video signal, being superimposed on the main image, and displayed along with the video signal. A video or game image is a video signal, and various data associated with a broadcast signal, data such as information about stocks, and OSD information are graphic information. - The external
peripheral device 200 is a device which is connected to thedisplay apparatus 100, which is not capable of performing a newly developed or updated feature, and provides various images thereto, thereby enabling thedisplay apparatus 100 to have various features. Due to the externalperipheral device 200, a user may readily utilize a new feature without purchasing an updateddisplay apparatus 100. - When a graphic signal to be displayed together with a video signal displayed on the
display 40 is input through theperipheral device interface 50, thecontroller 60 outputs the input graphic signal to theimage composing module 30. - An image signal input from a conventional external source, such as a DVD, is input to the video processor of the display apparatus and processed. When input images are input from two sources, the graphic signal needs to be processed for the superimposing.
- According to the exemplary embodiment, when a signal provided from the external
peripheral device 200 is a video signal, the video signal is processed by thevideo processor 20 and displayed on thedisplay 40. When a signal provided from the externalperipheral device 200 is a graphic signal, the signal is input to theimage composing module 30. Theimage composing module 30 combines the graphic signal input through theperipheral device interface 50 with a video signal and outputs the combined signal to thedisplay 40. Then, a user can view various data associated with a broadcast signal being superimposed on the broadcast signal. The graphic signal input from the externalperipheral device 200 may include an alpha value for alpha blending. An HDMI interface, from a 1.3 HDMI version, supports 24-bit or higher (30 to 48 bit) deep color. Thus, when 8-bit red, green, and blue (RGB) are input, the alpha value may be received through the remaining bits. An interface for data communication of the graphic signal may be standardized between thedisplay apparatus 100 and the externalperipheral device 200. -
FIG. 2 illustrates a composite signal displayed on thedisplay 40. As shown inFIG. 2 , a video signal I and a graphic signal II are displayed on thedisplay 40. A broadcast signal that is a main image is displayed as the video signal I, and a search window for user's input and data associated with the broadcast signal (summary, cast, preview, associated programs, and channel information) are displayed as the graphic signal II. The graphic signal II is a signal received from the externalperipheral device 200, which is not provided autonomously by thedisplay apparatus 100. In the exemplary embodiment, the graphic signal II may be received from the externalperipheral device 200 and displayed on thedisplay 40. A user may use a feature not supported by thedisplay apparatus 100 through the composite image signal by theimage composing module 30. -
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an image displaying method of the display apparatus 1. The image displaying method of the display apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment is summarized as follows with reference toFIG. 3 . - The
display apparatus 100 receives a graphic signal associated with contents of a video signal and displayed along with the video signal through the peripheral device interface 50 (S 10). The graphic signal input through theHDMI port 53 of theperipheral device interface 50 includes an alpha value for alpha blending in addition to RGB. - The
image composing module 30 combines the input graphic signal with the currently received video signal (S20). The combined signal is displayed on the display (S30). - Further, the
image composing module 30 combines not only the graphic signal input through theperipheral device interface 50 but also a graphic signal autonomously provided by thedisplay apparatus 100 with the video signal. For example, theimage composing module 30 may combine channel information, a subtitle and a teletext which are provided independently by thedisplay apparatus 100, not by the externalperipheral device 200, with the video signal, and display the combined signal together with the graphic signal received from the externalperipheral device 200. - The video signal may be subjected to various procedures of image quality processing before or after being processed by the
video processor 20. If the graphic signal needs image quality processing, such a procedure may be conducted by the externalperipheral device 200 or performed while the graphic signal is combined by theimage composing module 30. Alternatively, after the graphic signal and the video signal are combined, the composite signal may be subjected to a separate process for improving image quality. -
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a display apparatus according to another exemplary embodiment. - The
display apparatus 101 according to the exemplary embodiment includes auser interface 70 to receive a user's selection. Theuser interface 70 includes a user input unit, for example, but not limited to, a remote controller, a key pad, a touch pad, a button and a mouse, and a graphic interface interacting with the user input unit. When desiring to view an Internet-based graphic signal while watching a broadcast signal, a user may request data through the user interface. When the selection by the user is received as a selection signal from the user interface, acontroller 60 outputs a control signal to an externalperipheral device 200 so that a graphic signal provided from the externalperipheral device 200 is output to animage composing module 30. - The external
peripheral device 200 receiving the control signal outputs a graphic signal desired by the user to theimage composing module 30 instead of to avideo processor 20. That is, the externalperipheral device 200 outputs an image signal on a different route depending on a kind of the image signal input through communication with thedisplay apparatus 101. In short, when the user desires a service from thedisplay apparatus 101, thecontroller 60 requests the service to the externalperipheral device 200 and an output route of the image signal is determined based on the control signal of thecontroller 60. When the image signal provided by the externalperipheral device 200 is a video signal, such as a video or game image, the image signal is output to thevideo processor 20. If the image signal is a graphic signal received through the Internet, the image signal is output to theimage composing module 30. -
FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an image displaying method of the display apparatus ofFIG. 4 . - A user may select to receive a graphic signal II using a
user interface 70, and thecontroller 60 receives a selection signal which to display the desired graphic signal (S40). - The
controller 60 outputs a control signal requesting the graphic signal to the externalperipheral device 200 through aUSB port 51 of a peripheral device interface 50 (S50). - The
controller 60 receives the graphic signal to be superimposed on a video signal through anHDMI port 53 of the peripheral device interface 50 (S60). - The
image composing module 30 combines the input graphic signal and the currently received video signal (S70), and adisplay 40 displays the combined signal thereon (S80) in the same manner as in the foregoing embodiment. -
FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an image displaying method of a display apparatus according to still another exemplary embodiment. - According to the exemplary embodiment of
FIG. 6 , acontroller 60 may determine whether an image signal received through aperipheral device interface 50 is a graphic signal. - As shown in
FIG. 6 , thecontroller 60 receives an image signal from an external peripheral device 200 (S90). When thedisplay apparatus 100 receives and displays a broadcast signal, various graphic signals may be automatically received from the externalperipheral device 200. In this case, even if a user does not receive a graphic signal, an image signal may be output from the externalperipheral device 200. Also, it may be set up in advance to automatically play an image signal output from the externalperipheral device 200. - The
controller 60 determines whether the image signal input from anHDMI port 53 is a graphic signal (S 100). - If the image signal is a graphic signal, the input graphic signal is output to an
image composing module 30, and theimage composing module 30 combines the graphic signal with a video signal (S 120). - However, if the image signal is a video signal, the input video signal is output to a
video processor 20 to be processed (S110). - The image signal processed by the
image composing module 30 or thevideo processor 20 is displayed on the display (S130). - Although a few exemplary embodiments have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that changes may be made in these exemplary embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined in the appended claims and their equivalents.
